RTX A5000 and RTX 5000 ADA is two completely different card.

RTX A5000 is based on GA102 and RTX 5000 ADA is based on AD102

RTX 5000 ADA is a cut down version of RTX 4090 (12800 CUDA cores vs 16384 CUDA cores).

RTX 4090 uses GDDR6x 384-bit bus while RTX 5000 ADA uses GDDR6 256-bit bus

RTX 5000 ADA should be faster than RTX 4080

How is it possible to have up to 20x PCIe 4.0 (320GT/s) from the chipset if the chipset only has a bandwidth of (128GT/s) from the CPU?
